The Gift goes on


The Gift goes on

I am excited to tell my kids about you

So they too can learn the gift of sharing too

I am excited to do the things that you do

So others can witness all I learned from you

 

The color of my skin did not stop you from helping

Now I am on my way to becoming

You paved the way so I could be something

You are far more than a mentor
